New product, new opportunities Agenda New product, new opportunities What we’ve learned about the whole life market Our new plan: BMO Insurance Whole Life Plan Case study Performance Bonus Our other solutions Ideas to grow your business

Continued low interest rates = lower dividend scales on PAR Decreasing fixed income yields continue to drag down dividend rates -Prolonged low interest rate environment has had an impact on the insurance industry -In particular, this has impacted the yield on bond yields – the result is seen on participating whole life par plan dividend scales -highs of +12% in the mid 80s; current levels are about half of that around 6% -this has prompted many advisors to take a more cautionary note when it comes to illustrating whole life plans – showing the primary scenario along with a -1% scenario seems to be the norm these days; some advisors may also be choosing to look at -2% scenarios

According to LIMRA, take a look at who buys insurance… Insureds between the ages of 45-64 account for 27% of policies but 44% of premiums BMO Insurance’s focus: ages 45-65 As are as age demographics, we understand that whole life insurance has a broad appeal From young to old, whole life insurance can fit many planning needs As far as BMO Insurance is concerned, we feel that our products will also have a broad appeal but our focus is in the 45-65 age bracket Source: LIMRA, 2015 Annual Canadian Individual Life Insurance Sales Supplement

Premium pay periods… according to a BMO Insurance survey* 20 Pay and Life Pay most common premium options Quicker Pay options have been introduced into the marketplace have an appeal for affluent and business owner clients Advisors and clients are looking for more premium options -Whole life plans have been on the market for many years – as far as premium options are concerned, 20 Pay and Life Pay options have been around for a long time and are pretty much standard across most whole life plans; -In a survey that BMO Insurance conducted, advisors told us that on average, they account for 82% of all new whole life policies -advisors also said that they want more options when it comes to premium payment periods -in particular, we’ve seen that quicker pay options are becoming more popular….. This may be prompted by the recent change in tax rules and the appeal that these premium options have with affluent clients Note: in BMO survey, n=136 Given the following Premium Pay Period options, how would your Par Whole Life Sales likely be allocated (percentage wise/% by # of policies) across each of these options? (TOTAL MUST ADD UP TO 100) Source: BMO Insurance Whole Insurance Survey: Summer 2015

Dividend Options… according to a BMO Insurance survey Close to ¾ of an advisor’s new par whole life clients will select Paid-Up Additions -When it comes to which dividend option clients are selecting, we found in our survey that advisors said that on average, close to ¾ of their clients choose Paid-Up Additions -Other options like 1 year term insurance, premium reduction or the cash option are used less frequently. Note: in BMO survey, n=136 Most popular dividend option: Paid-Up Additions Overall, what percentage (%) of your clients choose the following DIVIDEND PAYMENT OPTIONS? (Total must add up to 100) Source: BMO Insurance Whole Insurance Survey: Summer 2015
